Managing tax liability has never been so complicated, especially for higher income clients. New laws raised marginal income tax rates and reduced deductions so that most higher income tax clients face a tougher tax environment.
With the passage of the Pension Protection Act, Defined Benefit plan (DB) administrators and their clients have an array of new tools and techniques to build in flexibility and simplicity. The right DB plan design has the potential to allow high-income small business owners, independent professionals and consultants, and individuals with self-employment income to contribute and deduct up to $160,000-$200,000 annually, depending on their situation.
Take a look at this chart: http://www.onepersonplus.com/onepersonplus/taxslide.html
Numerous studies have shown that self–employed or small business owners with fewer than ten employees who earn over $150,000 annually say they would save more if they had more tax deductions.
